 ## Shared UI
 
-The shared UI is in the `MauiBlazorWeb.Shared` project. This project contains the Razor components that are shared between the MAUI and Blazor Web App projects (Home, Counter and Weather pages). The `Counter` component and `Weather` component are protected by [`[Authorize]` attributes](xref:Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization.AuthorizeAttribute), so users can't navigate to them unless they're logged into the app.
